Welcome to My Personal Finance Skills
My Personal Finance Skills delivers free financial education workshops to schools across the country to help students understand more about money and leave school ‘life-ready’. Sessions are targeted at students across KS3-5 (11-18 years old) are ideal for enrichment days, PSHE/Citizenship lessons or career insight days and can help you meet some of the Gatsby benchmarks.
In the Academic Year 2022-23 over 700 free financial education sessions were delivered reaching over 26,000 students nationwide and surpassing last year’s 600 sessions. We have now resumed our in-school programme with hybrid option still available. Where there is no availability, sessions will be delivered via a platform of the school’s choice such as MS Teams or Zoom.

On the left: My Personal Finance Skills and ITN Productions Industry News have co-produced an online news-style programme Financial Wellbeing. The focus of this segment is around the My Personal Finance Skills initiative that delivers free financial education to schools across the UK via a network of Education Champions, members of the Chartered Insurance Institute and Personal Finance Society. With the participation of staff and students from Aylesford School along with Educators and Education Champions Sue Eadon-Butler and Robert Boland.
On the right: Students from the college, and participants in the programme, used the opportunity of experienced professionals delivering free financial education (in this case Education Champion, Robert Boland) to produce a short video as part of a separate college project. With thanks to all participants, Robert Boland, Dawn Helsby & NWSL College.
Educators – Contact us today to arrange a free workshop
Due to increased demand of the programme, we encourage schools to provide at least 3-4 weeks’ notice of a request and try to space workshops out i.e. 2 or 3 sessions at a time to increase the chance of securing a facilitator. If your request is in less than 4 weeks, please let us know and we will call you.
Please note that upon receipt of your enquiry a member of our team will contact you to find out more about your request and proceed with your booking.
